Hi fellow crafters, I am back today posting another Christmas card. I had earmarked this sketch from Freshly Made Sketches - FMS213 earlier in the week, but my real inspiration came when taking a peek at my sister in law Vikki W's blog and saw the Stampin' Royalty Picture Inspiration Challenge SR#304 for this week. Once again I have used my favourite Christmas stamp...I knew I would as soon as I saw the inspiration picture! Thanks for taking a peek.

Back today with another Christmas card for my (very slowly) growing stash. For this card I have played along with the team at CAS(E) this sketch! and their current sketch CTS150. Originally I was planning on using a floral stamp on this card but when foraging through my Christmas stamps today I thought this stamp would do just nicely. I think this is my favourite Christmas stamp that I own so I do like this card...I hope you do too...thanks for taking a peek.

I'm back today to post a card that I managed to finish making last night. This is another birthday card and this time I have played along at Freshly Made Sketches using their latest Sketch 212. I took this photo late last night and the lighting isn't very good and unfortunately I have already popped the card in the post as it has many miles to travel before reaching it's destination on Friday. I really liked this layout and think I may use it as a go to again in the near future. Thanks for taking a peek.

I made this quick colourful card yeterday. Needing to make a birthday card for a little girl who was turning 3 I was blog hopping to find a challenge that might give me some inspiration and when I came to the City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 287 - Dye It! challenge I knew I needed to look no more. I was always going to use balloons on this card so when the guidelines for this challenge said there could be no stamping or DP I decided to use these balloon split pins I had in my stash which determined the inks that I would use ..my Kaleidacolor Raised Rainbow Dye Inkpad, Melon Melody which I brayered across card that I had embossed with a Happy Birthday embossing folder. After assembling it all together I am quite pleased with the result. Thanks for taking a peek.

Happy to be back posting today, one because it is a public holiday here and two, because I have made another Christmas card for my (very small) stash. This is a very different Christmas card for me...it is pink....and that is because I have played along at TIME OUT challenges and their Challenge # 43 Christmas with the optional twist of "use pink and/or purple". I have also played along with Mojo Monday - The Blog using their latest sketch 421. Thanks for taking a peek, I may just go and make another Christmas card now using the colour purple!

About Me

The time has come to update my profile! I am still a happily married mum of one, however a lot has happened in the last 10 months! Along with my husband and son I have moved from sunny Queensland in Australia to the cooler climate of Tasmania, Australia. I am no longer working full time, actually I'm unemployed at the moment....but hoping to find a job in the near future. I am still trying to get in some stamping time...not as much as I would like....and am still trying to improve my photography skills. I guess if it is possible to make a resolution mid year mine would be to stamp at least once a week and actually finish a project!
